It’s Wednesday again, time to look at what the most popular games are in the Wii Shop. To check for yourself simply log on to your Wii Shop channel, go into the WiiWare section and then view “Popular Games”.

Gyrostarr seems to have been a big hit shooting up to an impressive 4th place, after debuting at #10 just two days after release. Compare this to Magnetica Twist which has only managed to make it to #15 in two days. It’ll be interesting to see what position this Nintendo published title makes it to this time next week.

I can’t believe that Cocoto Fishing has actually gone up this week, bizarre! Again no change with the top three showing that Nintendo games always reign supreme on WiiWare and Defend Your Castle is still popular at its low selling point.

Poor old LostWinds is starting to fall now, from #6 to #9. Could it be beginning its decline out of the charts? It doesn’t look like Star Soldier R is going to be around for much longer, another few more games and it’ll be pushed from the top 20 forever it seems!

Darren is Nintendo Life’s Batman: fearless in the face of danger, he loves gadgets and talking in a really, really deep voice. As Operations Director he stays mostly behind the scenes in a room he insists on calling “The Batcave”.
